"I used to do drugs. Not how the normal human being would begin a description of themselves but it's the truth. That's how kids knew me in highschool. I'll lead up to why and what happened and why I stopped later but you might as well get to know me first.
I'm really calm, I never get really worked up, I never get really mad, I never laugh so hard my face turns red, I'm just calm. I'm not shy or overly quiet, because I talk A LOT I just don't get excited when I'm talking about something awesome. I guess on top of that is that I'm lazy. I never really have a shit load of energy, I just sort of sit around and do absolutely nothing. Some people would assume I play video games or something on my spare time but I don't. I don't understand them, like computers just fuck me up. I have met my match, and my match is electronics. Maybe I'm stupid or something, but I always break them, or those contests you win online you know, the ones where it's like 'you just won a million dollars!' and then my computer breaks and I'm like 'wait... What?' I just don't understand them, even something as simple as a gameboy confused me. But then again, I suppose I get confused a lot.
I tend to either over think things, or not think at all, or stuff just doesn't make sense. I always ask questions, which is why people hate watching movies with me. I never understand what's going on, so I always ask. I never get a whole lot of sarcasm, I have to think about whether it is or not before I realize it is. But I'm sarcastic myself, though, which that also confuses me. I'm not really sarcastic, just here and there. And it's never anything mean, because I'm not like that.
I know I'm negative towards a few things, but I'm a good person. I'm not rude, I wouldn't ignore a fan, and I try my best to talk to anyone that talks to me. But there are quite a few things on this earth that I'm negative about, and sometimes I state my opinion. It's never about people, maybe about how they do something but never about them.
Anyway, enough about who I am. I was born and raised in Green Bay, Wisconsin. My mom and dad divorced when I was five, and I went from my mom's house to my Dad's house each week, instead of during the week, then switch on the weekend. Luckily for me, they remained in the same town. I was the second youngest of five, having two older sisters, an older brother and a younger brother. My younger brother though, is only my half brother, because mom got pregnant when she was still with dad, with another man's child, and when dad found out he left my mom. None of us hate my younger brother for making our parents split, we mostly blamed the man who didn't use protection.
In school I was a slow learner. I wasn't stupid, though. If that's what you were thinking. No, I just had to always have someone to break it down for me, and people thought I had a learning disability, but it was just I never got it. Well, except English and music. Music I always had A's, English, too. Mostly because they were the only two I ever showed interest in. Well, I suppose I was just too lazy to take any participation in the other classes, I guess. But yeah, music if you handed me an instrument I wouldnt mind learning how to play it. And I was always in some band, whether it be lame or not.
I didn't talk a whole lot in highschool, and didn't have a whole lot of friends, either. I guess then you could've called me greasy and gross because I was the kid who would skip class just to have a cigarette. I spent countless weekends alone smoking pot in my garage, and going to friends houses to get high on other drugs, and get wasted.
Once I got so drunk or high or something, I went to the local park in my boxers and a bandana around my head. I kept singing the beetles, while I swung on the swings and shit. It was most definitely a bad point in my life, since my grades were slipping and my mom stuck me with my dad. My dad didn't like the fact I did drugs and shit, but I didn't care. I loved that hint of excitement I received, because my life was so slack. But then again, in my eyes, everyone's lives were slack. It was pretty much an 'emo' stage of my life, because I was negative about everything.
But I got over it, matured a bit, I guess, got a nice hair cut, and joined sixsixsix. Sure, it took awhile to get the drugs out of my system, but I wasnt really craving them, it was just something to do, I guess. I wouldn't tell people to do drugs, but then again, I wouldn't tell them not to."
